The Lord Is My Shepherd

From Darkness to Light 
God's Promises 
God Promises to Guide our Way
Live in the light of God (Isaiah 2:5) 

Psalm 2 New International Version

Psalm 23

A psalm of David.

1 The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.
2     He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,
3     he refreshes my soul.
He guides me along the right paths
    for his name’s sake.
4 Even though I walk
    through the darkest valley,[a]
I will fear no evil,
    for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
    they comfort me.

5 You prepare a table before me
    in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
    my cup overflows.
6 Surely your goodness and love will follow me
    all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord
    forever.


For Reflection

Psalm 23 provides a message of hope and comfort. Green pastures an still waters were not always easy to find, especially in the summer months.  The shepherd is on constant lookout for the welfare of his sheep.

The psalmist declaration of confidence inGod indicates complete trust. /The psalmist gives his life over to God without a hint of doubt the Gog willl have his 6.

Pray

Pray, that you will develop confidence and trust enough that you want for nothing.
